FAQs

Gilt mirrors from around 1900 often feature classical and neo-rococo revival motifs, slender frames, and refined details such as rope twist mouldings, ribbons, and decorative cresting.

Frames were typically constructed from carved timber coated with a layer of gesso, which was then layered with gold leaf gilding and hand-finished.

Authentic period mirrors generally feature original timber backing boards, subtle wear or oxidisation to the gold leaf finish, and minor distress to the mirrored glass silvering.

A full-length gilt mirror can be leaned against an empty wall or mounted in a hallway to bounce light, create depth, and contrast with contemporary minimalist furnishings.

Gilded gesso surfaces should be dusted gently with a soft, dry brush or microfibre cloth, avoiding water and liquid chemical cleaners that dissolve gold leaf.
